competencies in Business Intelligence and Mid-Market Solutions Provider,

successful projects (along with implementing a yearly customer satisfaction
study), meet a revenue commitment (for most gold competencies), and pass
technology assessments.
Currently, ICS holds four Microsoft Gold Competencies and seven Microsoft
Silver Competencies. The areas in which they've achieved Gold Competencies,
the highest level of distinction are in the following areas: Management &
Virtualization, Communications, Business Intelligence, and Mid-Market
Solutions Provider. The areas in which they've achieved seven Silver
Competencies are in the following areas:Collaboration & Content, Data
Platform, Devices & Deployment, Identity & Access, Messaging, Server Platform,
and Small Business. They've also achieved the Cloud Accelerate competency.

commitment to staying deeply informed about the latest Microsoft products and
technologies. "Our expertise allows us to create innovative solutions for our
